Statements from Monreal:
 
(Team morale) “We’re more relaxed now, we’ve got more confidence and have a very positive attitude following our three consecutive wins.  We feel like we’ve found the right balance between our performance and game.  We’re now in Champions positions, it’s a great time for the team, we’re full of enthusiasm and morale is high.  We’re hoping to play well, like we did in the Copa, and take three points away from the Bernabéu”.
 
(Real Madrid) “We always see Madrid matches, and everyone knows them.  We know they’re a difficult to team to play at home, where they’ve only lost one match, they’ve got a strong team, and play at a very high level.  Though they’ve played a match this week, I don’t think tiredness affects them, they’re used to playing at this pace”.
 
“We can’t worry about them in general as a team, or a single player, but just focus on ourselves.  We know they’re very powerful from an attacking perspective, but they sometimes make mistakes, so we need to take advantage of this, and create more possibilities for us”.
